 What happens when a user clicks on a link in the chat window? Do we just
 intercept the click and do nothing? Do we open it in the default browser
 (dangerous)? Or do we open it in Tor Browser if it is running?

 I think we can go with this option for now: "If someone sends you a link,
 where will it open? Again, to start, it won't at all and you'll be forced
 to manually paste it into the browser of your choice."

 Further discussions are welcome.
